American television host Samantha Brown, notable for her work as the host of several Travel Channel shows including, Girl Meets Hawaii, Great Hotels, Passport to Europe, Passport to Latin America, Great Weekends, and Passport to China recently came out to Fairtex Bangplee. Sam and her film crew dropped in to film a segment for her new upcoming series Samantha Brown\'s Asia: Thailand. This part of the filming was to cover Thailand\'s national sport Muaythai at one of the most respected institutions.

Sam got the opportunity to learn the \"Art of the Eight Limbs\" with 20th century\'s top fighter Apidej Sit-Hirun. Sam stood toe to toe with Apidej as he called out the basic techniques for Sam to try. To much of Apidej\'s delight Samantha quickly picked up some of the kicking techniques.

After a hard training session, a worn out Sam and her crew packed up and headed out to their next filming segment, which was to cover the great street food culture of Bangkok. This looks to be an entertaining show, so be sure to check back to Fairtex.com for its debut to television.

USMF Athletes, Michael Corley, has joined Fairtex Bangplee as the General Manager. Here in a picture with Samantha Brown and Ajarn Apidej Sithirun at Fairtex Bangplee.
